2009 BMW X6

BMW X6 Selling Fast

 

BMW Dealerships across the United States have been reporting strong sales for the BMW X6 Sports Activity Coupe.  For example, in New Jersey Circle BMW Sales Manager Bob Makda told us that the interest has been very high for the new X6.  Once customers take the car for a test drive they are sold on the power in the vehcile.

General Manager Marshal Chabot from Massachusetts based BMW of Peabody started strong with BMW X6 sales at their X6 Salon Event on May 1, 2008.  They sold a high number of sales on release and they have never looked back.

When I attended the New York Auto show this year, the X6 was drawing significant attention to those who visited the BMW booth.   Although the X6 was hot, the car of the show was the BMW Concept CS.  Wow, what a great looking car.

BMW car dealers looking for new ideas to market their cars and the 2009 BMW X6, should visit the Pasch Consulting Group's website at www.bmwseo.com

The game has started and the release of new promotional information is in full gear.  A new promotional video was released this week and we have it for you on www.2009bmwx6.com.    I think I would have chosen some better background music for the X6 video, but I'll let you decide.  The promotional buildup is most likely for the Detroit Auto Show at which BMW will be showcasing the BMW 335d and the BMW X5 xDrive35d; two new diesel powered cars for the US Market.  Click here to view the 2009 BMW X6 video.

 

 

BMW X6 Power - XDrive50i & xDrive35i

BMW will once again introduce a ground-breaking idea to the world and the creation of a new segment with the debut of its all-new X6 Sports Activity Coupe at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show in January.

The all-new vehicle redefines the very notion of a coupe—with five doors and four sculpted seats, a higher ride and loads of cargo space. It defies coupe conventions in one jaw dropping look, combining coupe agility and SAV versatility, taking the coupe to a higher level.

As the world’s first Sports Activity Coupe, the BMW X6 will be available in two engine variants: the xDrive50i (4.4 V8 engine, 400 hp, 450lb.-ft torque) and the xDrive35i (3.0 inline six-cylinder engine, 300 hp, 300 lb.-ft torque), both with Twin Turbo and direct injection.  The BMW X6 offers unique features and performance ability in a combination unmatched by any other vehicle. The new BMW X6’s design combines the sporting elegance of a large BMW Coupe with the powerful presence of a BMW X model.

The BMW X6 comes as standard with BMW’s intelligent xDrive all-wheel-drive technology with electronic control for variable distribution of drive power between the front and rear axles, consistently adjusted to driving conditions at all times and in all situations.

Featured for the first time as standard in the BMW X6, Dynamic Performance Control likewise ensures variable distribution of drive forces between the two rear wheels. Dynamic Performance Control incorporates an advanced computer control and an innovative rear differential incorporating two planetary gear sets and two clutch packs that enables the system to multiply torque on an individual rear wheel.

The result is that Dynamic  Performance Control can help steer the vehicle by directing torque to either of the rear wheels. Unique the world over, this cutting-edge technology is effective whether the driver is accelerating or decelerating and significantly enhances steering precision and, as a result, the agility of the vehicle at any speed.

In fast corners with abrupt steering maneuvers or with the driver suddenly releasing the gas pedal, Dynamic Performance Control serves to improve the stability of the entire vehicle, thus allowing the driver to safely enter and enjoy new dimensions of driving dynamics. Finally, on slippery or uneven surfaces, Dynamic Performance Control provides the further advantage of even safer and more stable traction.

The new V8 engine with Twin Turbo technology and direct gasoline injection, is likewise making its world debut in the BMW X6. Displacing 4.4 liters, this eight-cylinder with maximum engine output of 400 hp and peak torque of 450 lb-ft available over an unusually large range of engine speed from 1,800–4,500 rpm, is the most powerful engine ever seen in a BMW X Model.

The new eight-cylinder is indeed truly impressive not only through its outstanding thrust and pulling force, but also through its compact dimensions. For this is the first eight cylinder gasoline engine in the world to feature its turbocharger in the V-section between the two rows of cylinders.

Hence, the BMW Sports Activity Coupe is an absolutely exceptional vehicle also beyond the direct range of BMW X Model competitors, ensuring unparalleled performance in all situations, regardless of road and surface conditions.
